FANTASY NOVEL BY DAVE SMEDS THE SCHEMES OF DRAGONS by Dave Smeds, pb, March 1989, 250 pgs. High fantasy. Praise from F&SF: ``Dave Smeds writes fantasy with the inventiveness and rigor of the best sort of hard science fiction. His story of a world being conquered by a Hitlerian dragon is so real that when you set it on the same shelf with woodsy-elvesy fantasies, within a week they crumble into dust.'' Original edition.
